We simply loved Josephine's beautiful home during our layover. It was tidy,quiet and had everything we needed. Our host even let us check in early and was very flexible. Uber is very expensive as we spent what we paid for a flight on Uber so please be aware of the location if traveling to airport. Other than that it was amazing and well deserved mini hide away vacay.

Monique2017-05-30T00:00:00Z

It is a great place, very clean comfortable, so much I have book it again.

Josephine's place was perfect. It is exactly how it looks in the pictures, spacious and clean. Check in and out was simple. I enjoyed my stay and would stay here again.

Regina2017-08-11T00:00:00Z

My partner and I stayed at Anna's place for 5 days. First and foremost, this place was not labeled as an area in which the whole apartment is rented out to other Airbnbers or else I would have not stayed here. Anna's place felt more like a hostel than an Airbnb. In other words, I did not feel safe not knowing who was checking in and out. With that being said, there is one bathroom for 5 other people. At 1 A.M. the three people who were renting out the room next to us at asked my partner and I to unclog the shower because the host was no where to be found. Host does not live here and was not there for the whole trip, I have only met Anna once and that was to unclog the shower when I complained. For the first three nights we stayed here it was incredibly loud. Another additional note, I put things in the fridge and it was used by other people who stayed there. I talked to the host, she did not do anything except apologize. The wifi is terrible kept disconnecting and connecting. Also, the room is right next to the train, so the train at night is very loud.

Crystal2017-03-15T00:00:00Z

I like the carpet Anna gets in the house. The room is neat and cozy. It was a quiet and nice stay at Anna's place.

Clean and cozy room 2 train stops or a 15min taxi ride from JFK and a block from Rockaway Beach.
Perfect for layovers and weekend beach trips.
Easy cheap access to Times Square Manhattan by subway.
Car service possible.

The room is furnished with a full-size bed, closet, and drawer cabinet.

Do not stay at this place. Even though it's described as clean, it was filthy. The worst part was that we were obliged to keep our sandals off on the carpet (which we understand, but looking at how the carpet was filled with dirt, we just weren't comfortable doing so). There was also EXCESSIVE knocking on our bedroom door by the host and made us feel unsafe in this place. He was rude and didn't care at all about our stay. The only good part is the location, because it's a five minute walk to the beach. Keep in mind they only provide bedsheets on the bed, so make sure you bring your own blanket. Overall just an unpleasant experience. By the way we NEVER made bad reviews on airbnb, but that was honestly the worst we've ever been to.

François2017-09-01T00:00:00Z

rockaway is a beautiful place, rohan is a great dude, great sleeping situation with a beautiful breeze and a comfy bed. definitely recommend staying here

charlotte2017-08-12T00:00:00Z

Rohan and roommates were great hosts and welcomed us warmly upon our arrival. We were so busy at the beach and exploring the neighborhood that we were only in the apartment at night to sleep and shower and brush teeth. During our six nights there, we only saw the other people a few times. After being an Airbnb guest many times over the years, this was our first time sharing an apartment with the hosts - we had always chosen to rent an entire home - but the location and price were really great so we decided to try it and it worked well for us. Thanks, Rohan!

Jason2017-08-25T00:00:00Z

It was nice place to spend our vacation and comfy room quiet as well ...

Anas2017-03-17T00:00:00Z

Rohan was very accommodating to my last minute request to stay in one of his rooms and late check-in. He was friendly, made sure he accommodated me perfectly (even gave me an extra blanket), and made sure I knew the best way to get to my destination the next morning. I am very open minded to staying with Rohan again. Good guy and I highly recommend!

Jeremy2017-05-22T00:00:00Z

Rohan always went an extra mile to help by offering me a ride from the airport and he was super helpful throughout my stay. He is a really amazing guy and he will happily help you with everything you need. The place is exactly as described. Its about a 20 min ride from the airport and about half a mile away from the nearest subway. So, its really well connected to any place that you might wanna go.

Surf shops, A Train 69th st. stop, Grocery Store all within a 10 minute walk. You’ll love my place because of the 15 minute walk to Rockaway Beach. My place is ideal for solo adventurers and business travelers. You'll be staying with 2 men in their early to late 30's. We are professionals who also make art. We expect to leave you alone but are also happy socializing. Almost always down to surf. It's a 3 bedroom and completely renovated in August 2016.
Single occupancy only, no exceptions.

This place is very close to the beach and very close to Buddhist insight meditation center. It's a lovely apartment with three rooms, a nice bathroom, spacious living room and kitchen.

Lu2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

Stayed here overnight on a JFK layover, and it was perfect. Dominic is a great host with a tidy, welcoming, and peaceful place. Beach points and public transportation are easily accessible. I will definitely return!

Elenna2017-06-05T00:00:00Z

Dominic was great! The place was clean, quiet, and he was very friendly. I'd highly recommend it to anyone!

Emily2017-05-23T00:00:00Z

location: easy to find parking, and convenient for public transportation. room: cozy, ample light, and ventilation. host: who else would ask about your preference in cereal, milk, and fruit before check-in. within the first minute of meeting to dominic, it was surreal how like-minded we were. just easy going. it would not be a total surprise if i seek out his place for future NY trips.

garryl2017-06-02T00:00:00Z

Clean, comfortable lodging conveniently located in walking distance of the A train, beach, and several neighborhood restaurants/watering holes. Dominic is a very easy-going and hospitable host was kind enough to provide cereal and fruit for breakfast during my stay. He knows the neighborhood well and offered some great suggestions of places to check out. I would definitely return!

Brian2017-08-06T00:00:00Z

I had such a great first experience staying at Dominic's place that I decided to book with him again. He went out of his way to make sure the check in process was easy both times, accommodating both an early morning and late night arrival. He's chill and let me do my own thing, but went out of his way helping me get to know the area. He's a great host with a great spot, I felt right at home during both of my stays!

Carissa2017-04-16T00:00:00Z

This place was clean and a short walk to the beach and subway. The hosts are friendly surfers and very accommodating. Awesome place!

Mia2016-08-14T00:00:00Z

Everything was perfect! Dominic and his roommate are super friendly and made me feel welcome from the get go. Super clean and tidy, always had amazing coffee and their eyes start glowing when they talk about surfing :-) I love Rockaway for the surf and the atmosphere - and the tacos of course! It's great when you're looking for a quiet, nice, comfy place to stay after enjoying the beach, exploring the city or heading home from work. Highly recommendable and one of my favourite AirBnB experiences! :-)

Easy to find, clean & comfortably furnished, Cashmira's spot is like a hidden gem. Highly recommended for those looking for a respite to write and for inspiration! Communication was quick and easy and the A train only a few blocks away, along with shops for any necessities.

Winter2017-07-02T00:00:00Z

The attic apartment was very comfortable and adorable! Loved the stay. On the last night I had 2 friends join me, and the place easily accommodated 3 people. Would consider staying here again!

We had a great time at Maggie's. The house was very clean and neat, it was a 7 minute walk to the beach. There wasn't a lot to do in the neighborhood so make sure you are looking for a really quiet stay or have a car. Close to public transportation. Beaches are so quiet and pristine. House could use more/ updated bedding, there was no top sheet and the duvet, bottom sheet were itchy. TV does not actually hook up to anything, so there isnt really a TV.

Janie2017-08-24T00:00:00Z

Maggie and Peter's place was extremely clean and well kept. They were very responsive and helpful, my girlfriend left her straightener at their apartment and they were kind enough to ship it to us since we are not around the corner! Thanks guys :)

Daniel2017-08-28T00:00:00Z

Booked the space for a one-night stay with two friends, and it was exactly what we needed. We spent two full days at the beach and out and about, but it was nice to come back to a quiet, clean house. The hosts were quick to respond and made check in and check out super easy. Loved it!

Kathryn2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

This is a great spot for a weekend getaway! The neighborhood is quiet but still close to restaurants and bars. A very quick walk to the beach and a much less crowded part of the beach which I appreciated. Maggie and Peter were super flexible and responsive throughout our stay. We would definitely come back!

Jessica2017-07-31T00:00:00Z

Euijong2017-07-26T00:00:00Z

Maggie was very attentive and welcoming! She replied to my messages in less than 30 minutes, available 24/7! Her place is located 5 min walk to less crowded, quite section of the Rockaway Beach! I ABSOLUTELY loved it! Clean, nice and comfy apartment where we could get some nice rest and sleep after a fun day at the beach! Kitchen is well-equipped and overall, the place was very spacious to accommodate 4 adults! Central air, fast wifi, easy check in/out, clear communication, close to beach, lots of street parking and close to A train station! I and my friends had such an AMAZING weekend at Maggie's place. Couldn't ask for more! I definitely want to come back again!

Helen Seung Hyun2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

Maggie and Peter were phenomenal hosts. Their place was cozy, comfortable and its close to the beach! I didn't use public transportation but there is a subway very close by. A must place to stay if you are in the area.

Plenty of room for all of our guests to enjoy the shared space.

You are in for a treat since we are across the street from the beach and boardwalk. We were both born and raised in the Rockaway beach area and also raised our families here. We know first hand where the locals frequent and fun things to do. We have many family members who live locally as well as friends many from our childhood. Rockaway has loads of high end restaurants to local family owned eateries and breakfast spots.

Rosemary's place was an amazing place to stay! Exactly as described. 1 minute walk to the beach, 5 minutes from the subway, grocery store within walking distance, bars and restaurants within walking distance..... what more could you ask for?? Clean, safe, and affordable. I would recommend Rosemary's place to any Air B and B traveler.

peaceful,friendly,security guard driving around at night,few steps from the beach,boardwalk

This townhouse is in a newly developed area just blocks from the sea and the subway. The home looks brand new. It is spotless. The room I stayed in was well appointed and the bed very comfortable.. Lilanie's husband, James greeted me and filled me in on everything I needed to know. He is a good conversationalist and provided me with a full, hot breakfast, including a Philippine specialty, a kind of corned beef hash. Very comfortable and convenient stay.

Kevin2016-09-21T00:00:00Z

Had a lovely trip - spent a week at Lilanie's place which we found to be perfect for us. It was 2 mins from the tube A line which was only a couple of stops from JFK and about an hour from Manhattan. It was also only 2 mins from the beach which was fantastic if you fancy a get away from the hustle and bustle of Manhattan this is a pleasant change. Lilanie was a welcoming host who made us feel at home with her amazing banana and pineapple muffins. Yummy.

Mandie2016-08-29T00:00:00Z

Lilanie's place is really great, nice and peaceful, very close to the beach, supermarket and metro station. Lilanie is really great host, I could use her kitchen at any time I needed. I was also offered a bedroom with a private bath, which I really appreciated. It was really relaxing time. Thank you so much!

Katarzyna2016-09-11T00:00:00Z

Lilanies house is located two streets away from the beach (no fee, clean, very few people), 5min on foot to a subway station (ca. 50min to Manhattan) and a 5min walk away from a Stop&Shop and a few Fast Food restaurants. There are two rooms for rent, so we shared the bathroom with two girls for half our stay. Every morning, Lilanie prepared something for breakfast, there was water on our room when we arrived and she offered us delicious fruits - all very nice touches! The room and bathroom were perfectly clean, as well. Lilanie is a great host and her place offers great value for anyone who wants to spend a few days on the beach!

Felix2016-08-16T00:00:00Z

Mark2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

Yip was super friendly and very accommodating. The space was clean and exactly as described. It was very comparable to staying in a hotel but much cleaner and more private. The terrace is a really nice feature and we spent a few great evenings out there. One thing to note: there are 47 steps up to the room, so keep that in mind. The Rockaways in general aren't the nicest of areas but we always felt safe in this new and very clean neighborhood. Plus it was right by the beach so that was a major plus. I'd definitely recommend staying here.

Laura2017-03-28T00:00:00Z

I guess everyone who is going to stay here will have the chance to get to know Ann. She is a great a helpful person doing all her best to offer everyone a great stay at her place. She organized a great surfing class for us and also helped us with dinner in here area. Here place is perfectly clean and quiet and looks like in the pictures. The place is around 10 minutes walking away from the beach where you can find at least 3-4 surf schools. So if you really want to go surfing, this is the spot in New York you should stay (best is going during the week as it can be crowned at the weekend). Around 15-20 Minutes walking at the beach you will also find some beach bars who played even life music during the summer weekends. We also went Jet skiing but beside this it is mainly beach which can be experienced in this area. The time at Ann’s place was great and I can’t mentioned enough that Ann is a really helpful person and a good host.

My place is close to Rockaway YMCA, Skudin Surf — Rockaway Beach, and Locals Surf School. You’ll love my place because of the comfy bed. My place is good for solo adventurers and business travellers.

My house is across the street from the boardwalk. Walk up the ramp, and voila!: The Atlantic Ocean! Arverne has shops, banks, a hair salon, and a few restaurants within a 15-minute walk along the boardwalk.

We recommend Joao's place! You'll love it because it's right across the street to the beach & boardwalk. Enjoy!

Joao is one of the kindest host on Airbnb, and I definitely recommend staying with him. The place is great, confortable, and clean. Furthermore, it's right in front of the beach!

I didn't get a chance to meet Joao but he has a very efficient, no hassle check-in process. The room has a TV with an awesome Roku remote that has Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu and something else. The room has a very comfortable bed; I guarantee you will sleep like a baby.

If you're looking for a beach rental close to JFK, this is a good option. The beach is right across the street, and it's a short walk to some wildlife sanctuaries. The A train was also short walk away, as was a Stop and Shop and Chase Bank. (Not to mention a short bus ride for tacos and Rockaway Beach Surf Club!) My room was comfortable and quiet, and it and the bathroom were nice and clean. Joao was gone during the few days I was there, but he made it easy for me to find the key and check out and in.

Frank responded very quickly to my inquiries and answered all my questions before we committed. The apartment is in a new town home on the second floor and Frank and his wife Patricia live on the first floor. (You cannot hear any noise from the first floor.) It is a lovely home and everything is tastefully decorated, incredibly clean and brand new. Frank and Patricia showed us around and provided snacks, tea and coffee and other incidentals that were appreciated. They also gave us a very sweet anniversary gift (dessert and sangria!) They are a very nice couple. The neighborhood is a completely new and large high end development that runs from the subway to the beach including many townhomes and new shops/restuarants. Although it is a short walk from the train station to the apartment it did feel a little desolate at night. Not a deal breaker, this was in November when it was dark after 5:00pm. Also be aware when returning from the city on the train that there are two A trains and you want the Far Rockaway A train. We mistakenly boarded the other one the first night and wound up at the other end of this beach community and had to take a shuttle back. Our bad. The trip into NYC is about an hour and this apartment was very convenient for our purposes. Especially nice is the free parking space as it is always a hassle to dispose of your vehicle when visiting New York. We had a lovely stay and would recommend Frank and Patricia to anyone.

The place was exceptionally clean and organized. Frank was a great host!

Vickie2017-08-26T00:00:00Z

I have been using Airbnb for years and this host was one of the best. I arrived late (after 12am), and they were very hospitable. Again sorry for being so late to check in. Frank and his wife checked us in and showed us around.

Agye2016-11-06T00:00:00Z

Frank and wife are great host.I had a pleasant stay. The house is clean and spacious. Tea, coffee and light snacks I hope to stay again if I have an opportunity in future.

Young2016-11-27T00:00:00Z

Frank and his wife were absolutely lovely! They picked me up from the train station to take me to the house and show me around. It was full of amenities, food and snacks, and toiletries. The whole place was stunning and everything was brand new as well. They checked in with us to see if we were okay and even dropped me and my boyfriend at the airport. I would definitely stay with them again.

Leslie2016-10-30T00:00:00Z

Frank & Patricia were the perfect hosts! They worked with us on a convenient check in time and met us to show us around. Their apartment was perfect! Immaculately clean and stocked with a great assortment of snacks, juice, coffee tea and bottled water. Located just steps from the A train it was easy to get anywhere in the city. We will visit again for sure! Thank you!

My home is very quiet and cozy with amazing natural light. It is a great getaway for 1 person, 2 people, a couple, or even 2 couples.
It's 2 blocks to the beach, 1 block to the grocery store, and very close to the Beach 67th st. subway stop off the A train. Parking is very easy right in front too. Rockaway Brewery and Goody's Caribbean food (a locals fav) is 1 block away. The surf breaks by me are some of the best in the hood. Several surf schools set up at my beach too, if you want to learn!

I spent over a year picking out every detail that went into rebuilding this bungalow. The skylights and pitched ceiling create an open and airy feeling. Draw the curtains and enjoy privacy or let the sun radiate in. You will be transported to a cabin deep in the woods in the bedroom. Come discover the other special details and unexpected bursts of color.

Charming details Bright Private Comfortable Great location My husband and I loved our stay at Brent's bungalow and he was an absolutely superb and helpful host. A+++++++++ Would stay again!

Ashleigh2017-08-17T00:00:00Z

What a great little spot. 5 mins from a fantastic beach, and clean and modern inside, lots of light in the living room, we had a lovely weekend getaway all the way from Brooklyn! We walked to the beach many times, there are some good beer and food spots on the boardwalk a little further West. We had drinks and watched the sunset at the lively Bungalow bar, about 15 mins walk. Easy to get to from the subway.

Andy2017-06-11T00:00:00Z

Brent's bungalow is BEAUTIFUL! His location is just a few blocks from both the A train and the beach, which made it perfect for me. Brent was really easy to get in touch with and made sure I had everything I needed. I went to Rockaway as a calm staycation from NYC and it was perfect! I'll be doing this again soon!

Katie2017-01-29T00:00:00Z

What a fantastic beach escape! My boyfriend and I live in Brooklyn and came out to the Rockaways for a summer weekend staycation/getaway. We felt like we were so far from home without leaving NYC! We loved the the section of the beach that was a close walk, as well as the brewery that is just around the corner. The well equipped grocery store that is a block away is great too. We also loved the unique design elements of Brent's place, especially the cabin-like bedroom and the sleek yet homey feeling of the living room/kitchen. Brent was so welcoming and we really felt at home. This house is a unique gem tucked into an urban beach neighborhood. We hope to be back!

Eleanor2017-06-25T00:00:00Z

Brent was a lovely host. Friendly, flexible with scheduling, and understanding about our timing! He had awesome little details in the apartment that we loved, and the space was clean, airy, and a pleasure to stay in. We live in Brooklyn, and were looking for a way to get away without going too far, and this was perfect! The beach was very very close and, between the A train and the new NYC ferry/its accompanying free shuttle, extremely accessible. For anyone who is traveling from far away, or even if you also live in Brooklyn and just want a staycation not in your own apartment, this is your best option!

Laura2017-06-04T00:00:00Z

The apartment is very clean and near to JFK airport, just about 15 minutes drive. We need to catch an early flight and stay there for a night. Brent is very easy to communicate.

Kenneth2017-04-22T00:00:00Z

Brent's bungalow is a real gem! The location is great, and he obviously put so much effort into the restoration and redesign of the house. It was a perfect one-night escape from NYC. We plan to come back!

My place is close to Bungalow Bar and Restaurant, Dunkin' Donuts, Boardwalk Pizzeria & Restaurant, Thai Kitchen by the Sea, and Stop & Shop, the "A" train. You’ll love my place because of the beach within walking distance, the neighborhood, the people, the ambiance, 24 hour neighborhood security patrol. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, and families (with kids).

Includes rooftop terrace, suitable for small events
This space is shared. There are 2 available rooms. Other room is completely private with private access to terrace and available under the title "Beautiful home near beach & JFK!"

Private neighborhood on private street, blocks from the beach!

This was my first airbnb experience and it turned out to be quite a delight. I stayed here with my boyfriend for a week. The pictures of the house and the bedroom are accurate. I felt right at home even from the first warm welcome by the sisters. There was plenty of street parking available and across the street is the A train. The kitchen was fully stocked. There was a tv in the living room. The hosts were around in the evenings, but I still felt like we still had our privacy. They responded to texts/calls instantaneously. The house was kept quite clean and tidy. Thanks guys for everything.

Rayana2017-01-08T00:00:00Z

If you are looking for a place to stay along Rockaway Beach this is a GREAT location! The home is nestled in a quiet neighborhood of newly constructed townhouses and has quick access to the train, beach, and grocery store. During my stay the host made me feel at home and the room was comfortable, offering a nice respite after a long day. For those seeking a quiet and relaxing place away from the city this is a great spot!

Conra2017-06-21T00:00:00Z

We had a pleasant stay at Chadine's. Everything was working perfectly; the bedroom was comfortable and the host was always available to satisfy our needs. We would definitely go back! Thank you so much for everything.

Welcome to your private studio on the second floor. My place is close to Beach 69th Street, 3 mins walk to the subway station, 3 mins walk to the beach. 2 Train stops away from Howard Beach JFK Stop. 5 mins away from the stop & shop. You’ll love my place because of the comfy bed and the coziness. This studio doesn't have a kitchen, but we do have a microwave and a small refrigerator. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and business travelers.

The studio is large, comfortable and so easy to access via public transportation. This is the perfect getaway or treat for yourself in such a thriving beach community. Close enough (15 minutes), but thoroughly removed from the party section of the Rockaway beach stretch, just five minute walk to the surf side . Great communication from hosts and this is obviously a home and space they are proud of. Highly recommend.

Jesse2017-06-13T00:00:00Z

The place was lovely and clean. Very nice

Domonique2016-12-22T00:00:00Z

Huilin's room is located very close to Rockaway Beach and the subway station, with a small strip of places to eat within walking distance. The mile-long boardwalk also has many bars and seashore shops, some of which are included in the handy guidebook that is located in the room. The space is very hotel-like, as seen in the photos, minus the extra towels and toiletries. It's clean but not equipped for staying in, so take advantage of the beach life. The room is located in a small and quiet community, so be warned that if you plan on driving to Rockaway you will not be able to park in the community if Huilin's driveway is occupied. Most of Rockaway Beach requires a parking pass, so your car will be towed immediately if you are not wary of the infrequent warning signs. Two of our friends that drove to meet us at the beach had their cars towed, and were sent to the local towing company. The towing company, B&M Towing, was very rude and unhelpful, gloating about how many cars they had towed on Sunday, and calling our friend a "bitch" because she protested when they tried to overcharge her and force her to pay $200 upfront, in cash. Overall, Huilin's room is a value for its proximity to the beach and cleanliness, if you're planning on spending your entire stay at the beach. If you're looking for a more home-like experience in a lively and friendly neighbourhood, then you might be better off staying elsewhere in Queens that is also more accessible to Brooklyn and Manhattan.

Jonathan2017-08-14T00:00:00Z

I have spent loads of the when searching accommodation in New York for me and my mom. This apartment in Far Rockaway was just a perfect alternative if you want to stay away from non stop busy NY noise but the same time easily get to Brooklyn and Manhattan. "A" train is just steps away from the apartment. There is a nice supermarket nearby. Beach is just minutes from the place and it is very beautiful and peaceful getaway for a run or a walk. The place is very spacious and modern. Bathroom is very comfortable. Everything is clean and looks just like on pictures. Huilin is very nice and hospitable lady, she gave us water heater and cups as we asked, so we had our coffee and tea in the morning. Thank you for this nice experience in Arvene by the Sea!

Natalia2017-03-24T00:00:00Z

The studio is a very good place to visit New York! My daughter and I had a wonderful time there, the studio was big and clean, the host very helpful and all in all highly recommended! It takes you about an hour to Manhattan by the subway which is very easy to be reached.

Gabi2017-04-14T00:00:00Z

Room was clean and host was kind and quick to respond to any questions. Overall, I was very pleased with my experience. I would recommend to this room to anyone looking for an nice place to stay.

Cassandra2017-03-06T00:00:00Z

A great spot, close to the beach, close to the train - exactly as described! Easy and comfortable, with very helpful hosts.

Liz2017-07-25T00:00:00Z

This place was great! After spending a couple of days in Manhattan, this was the perfect spot to come to relax and get away. The beach is only a 2 minute walk and is one of the cleanest and least crowded beaches I've ever been to in New York. The room was clean and quiet. I will definitely try to stay here again the next time I'm in town.

bruno2016-10-16T00:00:00Z

We had a great time, the place was everything we expected it to be.

Ryan2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

The unit was exactly as advertised and it fit our plans for Rockaway perfectly. Derek, who was filling in for Safa, was very attentive to make sure everything was in order.

Ed2016-10-03T00:00:00Z

Perfect place to stay when visiting friends. Clean. Near the beach. Communication is excellent.

Mark2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

Safa's place was perfect- just what we needed for a short trip to the beach. The place was clean, quiet, and had all of the necessities. The fridge and water cooler were life savers!

Hope2016-05-30T00:00:00Z

A great, clean place, but far from a lot of the more happening beaches. There's a subway problem in getting from this part of the Rockaways to the other, more lively parts, so I'd prepare for using Uber or the city bus.

Paul2017-08-21T00:00:00Z

We stayed for two days with my wife and two kids and the place is exactly how it is advertised . Safa was very responsive and I would definitely stay next time .

Girum2017-07-17T00:00:00Z

Decent, functional rooms. Ideal for the night before flying from JFK Airport. Very close to Rockaway Beach. The communication was good, checking in and out have worked very well.

I have a private room that is 1 block away from the A train at Rockaway beach. My apartment is in the newly constructed Arverne by the sea. A shopping center with many shops (Thai kitchen by the Sea, Boardwalk pizzeria & restaurant, Breakwater Surf Co. (Rockaway), and Subway. My place is great for any type of traveler or temporary residents.

A private bedroom in a three bedroom apartment with a shared bathroom and terrace. Very cool peaceful setting.

Very nice and clean, perfect location (close to the beach, subway) but I booked as 2 guests, and there was only one blanket. So one person had to be covered with towels. Everything else was good.

Devany2017-09-04T00:00:00Z

The Rockaways are a very special gem in New York. You get very easy access to the city, but the benefit of being in a great beach town. This place was nice and easy to find. I would recommend staying here.
